I Cross Over Lines and I Broke All the Rules

Congratulations to Mr. Andrew Tuegel for correctly naming "Warehouse" by the Dave Matthews Band as the Song of the Day for Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday. Them's the rules, folks. If a song is not named, the lyrics carry over until someone rises to the challenge. It's a bit like the Skins Game, except for the fact that at the Skins Game already wealthy golfers increase their wealth and here, well, let's just say that there's not a lot of wealth development happening as a result of victory in the Song of the Day Contest.

Here's the question of the day, ladies and gentlemen: Has anyone out there in the blogosphere seen The Pineapple Express yet*? If so, do you recommend it? Thumbs Up? Thumbs Down?


The more perceptive readers will note that I am actually waiting for you to spend your hard-earned money on a hit or miss proposition before I spend my hard-earned money on what is hopefully not a hit or miss proposition. It may seem sinister, it may seem coldly calculating, but in reality, it's just an application of the tools in front of me. In a paraphrase of Newman from Seinfeld fame, "When you control the (blog), you control...information."

*For the benefit of the Texas Board of Law Examiners, no, I do not smoke marijuana, nor have I have ever, in the words of Bill Clinton, "inhaled".

I thought it was pretty funny. I will definitely watch it again when it comes out on DVD>

You should probably go at a time when middle aged people aren't in the theater, though, because they don't get it (anymore). Probably better if you aren't in mixed company. (No boobage, but violence and what not.)

The song is The Story by Brandi Carlile. The best part of that song is at 2:53. Goosebumps, every time. If you can, get that album on vinyl. Trust me.

So ... it doesn't suck at all, and is in fact a welcome respite from the rest of the field?
